School is in full swing and between pick up, drop off, errands, dance classes, and martial arts, I can barely get a break. Is anyone else feeling like that right now? Today, I'm sharing what I put in my on the go snack bag because no one likes a hangry mommy.
I try to keep healthier snacks in the car or my purse to keep me. I also try to have self stable options that I can carry around so that I don't have to worry about bringing an ice pack or finding a fridge. Also, I am one of the clumsiest people you'll ever meet do I try to find things that are sturdy because having smashed banana all over your phone isn't very fun. I also try to keep snacks that I can hand to my kids too because no one likes a hangry kid.
1. Beef Jerky. Jerky is my favorite healthy snack. Obviously, you can change that out for turkey jerky too if you'd like. I find that protein keeps me full and satisfied. My whole family loves it so this is our go-to road trip snack as well. I've recently really started like "original" flavored jerky which is usually lower in sugar than the other flavors.
2. Arbonne Bars. I think bars are the easiest, most convenient healthy snack. I really like these Arbonne Bars because they are lower in sugar than other bars but they have lots of vegan protein and fiber. I also like that buying these bars supports my local mom friends who sell Arbonne.
3. Eat Right Edibles Veggie Chips. I love this brand because they are really health conscious and keep up with the current food trends! They are also a local company. They never add artificial dyes to their products. This chip bag contains sweet potato (yellow and purple), squash, taro, carrot, and green beans. I feel like some times I just need a crunchy snack and these fit the bill for me.
4. Almonds. I live in what feels like the almond capital of the world which is lucky because they are my favorite nut! Often times I will pick up almonds at my local farmers market or sometimes I'll pick something up at the store like these Hog Wild cajun almonds. I LOVE spicy almonds! I love spicy flavors AND it usually makes me drink more water so it's a win win. Sometimes I'll have lightly salted almonds and sometimes I treat myself to the chocolate ones too.
What kind of snacks do you like when you're on the go? Do you also feel like you run a taxi service for small children who never tip you? Let me know in the comments!

ReplyDeleteI love spicy almonds too. The veggie chips look awesome - I'll have to look out for those. We stay away from all those unnatural ingredients too :)
ReplyDeleteAlmonds are the best! I always have good intentions with apples or bananas, but I either end up wasting them or bruising them to death haha. Larabars are amazing - no added sugar at all, but they're really tasty!
ReplyDeleteSuch great options!! I love beef jerky, and almonds are so yummy too!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE jerky but I never buy it because my husband isn't a fan. I do love those dried mango strips you can get at Costco though, those are so yummy!
ReplyDeleteWe love trail mix in our house. I like trying different kinds and my kids think it's a great snack as well!
